Re: Good vs Bad screens (pictures + videos of both)

Would be great if you could take some pics because buying one on ebay would be easier if we knew what the good one looked like (photo).

I just took apart my Alltel and two Sprint Touch Vogue 100.

Don't have a camera with me here now, but obvious differences in the LCD.

The Sprint version is gray with black border about 1/8" going around. The Alltel version is black.

As I stated before with the reasoning behind Japanese made Sony LCD being so clear, vivid and having more vibrant coloration because it starts with a black screen instead of gray background.

They are clearly different, the gray-ish ones have lettering engraved on them, the black one does not. They both have a film on them, like a thin screen protector.

EDIT: I'd like to mention, that lint and dust while working on screens SUCKS!
